With zcatalog you define an attribute to index it. Instead of indexing
the attribute (may be a string with the text you want to index)
you can also direct to a method which does some replacement first, zcatalog
will then index the results of the method rather then the raw string.

If I understand your problem right, it was not the text you want to change
but the question to the catalog to retrieve values.
This problem is even simpler resolved. You get the question as a string
from your formular, take this before calling the search function and
replace the brasilian "and" with the english "and" keyword :)
